Hyperlink is the first in a series of national festivals being developed as part of Circuit, a new national youth network for the visual arts. Funded by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation, Circuit aims to reach 80,000 young people aged 15鈥�25 over four years, through festivals, sustained partnership work and artist-led projects. The programme provides opportunities for young people across theUK, particularly those who have the least access to the arts, to participate and shape their own cultural experiences. Alongside Tate are five national partners: firstsite, Colchester; MOSTYN, Llandudno North Wales; Nottingham Contemporary; Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester; and Wysing Arts Centre and Kettle鈥檚 Yard, Cambridgeshire. All four Tate galleries will be involved: 黑料社 and Tate Britain in London, Tate Liverpool, and Tate St Ives (working closely with Newlyn Art Gallery and The聽Exchange).
